311759 ÷ 59 
Let's see how many times 59 fits into 311759.

Step 1:
When dividing 3 by 59, we get 0 with a remainder of 3.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 3 to get 3.
Take the next digit (1) from the dividend and append it to 3, then repeat: 31 / 59

Advancing to step 2:
59 goes into 31 0 times with a remainder of 31.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 31, we end up with 31.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 31, then repeat: 311 / 59

Going ahead to step 3:
311 divided by 59 is 5 with a remainder of 16.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5.0
Subtracting 295 from 311 leaves us with 16.
Grab the next digit (7) from the dividend, add it to 16, then carry on: 167 / 59

Moving on to step 4:
59 goes into 167 2 times with a remainder of 49.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 52.0
Deduct 118 from 167 and we're left with 49.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 49, then repeat: 495 / 59

Moving on to step 5:
If we divide 495 by 59, we get 8 and a remainder of 23.
Put 8 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 528.0
The remainder is 23 after subtracting 472 from 495.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 23, then carry on: 239 / 59

Let's proceed to step 6:
59 goes into 239 4 times with a remainder of 3.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5284.0
If we subtract 236 from 239, we get 3.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 30, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 30 by 59, we get 0 and a remainder of 30.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5284.0
If we subtract 0 from 30, we get 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Step 8:
59 can be fit into 300 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 5.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5284.05
Subtract 295 from 300 to get 5.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 50, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
59 can be fit into 50 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 5284.05
If we subtract 0 from 50, we get 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 10:
When dividing 500 by 59, we get 8 with a remainder of 28.
The number 8 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 5284.0508
Deduct 472 from 500 and we're left with 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 280, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
59 goes into 280 4 times with a remainder of 44.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5284.05084
Deduct 236 from 280 and we're left with 44.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 12:
440 divided by 59 is 7 with a remainder of 27.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 5284.050847
Subtract 413 from 440 to get 27.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 270, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 13:
The number 59 fits into 270 4 times, leaving a remainder of 34.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5284.0508474
Subtract 236 from 270 to get 34.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 340, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
If we divide 340 by 59, we get 5 and a remainder of 45.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 5284.05084745
Deduct 295 from 340 and we're left with 45.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 450, and continue the process.

Our division results in 5284.05084745 with a remaining 4.5e-08.
